I'm not having any problems. What problem are you having?

I just made a bet with walletofsatoshi and getalby... not sure why your wallet might be failing.... Are your channels misconfigured?

Just tried again- still getting same message- seems like zero connectivity between BTCPredict and Coinos wallet?

'Failed to route payment, recipient may not be reachable. Try sending a smaller amount or increasing the max fee reserve.'

Well we do have open channels with mutual peers. Coinos wallet is connected to megalith node, which is connected to us. There's both inbound and outbound liquidity in those channels, so it's strange that the payment failed. I even examined their node and balanced all the channels.

My guess is that the native routing algorithms are pretty shitty so they stop trying to find a route after a few attempts. But, according to your error, have you tried increasing the max fee in your wallet? That might have something to do with it.

Also have you tried possibly using your stacker news wallet? That one works (until Nov 5th I believe).

I am using Coinos and it's still not working. I have contacted coinos.io support and told them of the problem but have not heard back from them yet.

Thanks for your reply- the message I get mostly is 'Failed to route payment, recipient may not be reachable. Try sending a smaller amount or increasing the max fee reserve.' I try different amounts more and less and increasing the max routing fee but it never goes through.

Glad it finally worked. They’ve had some downtime the last week. Don’t keep large sums on there.

Anon might have success but I still cannot place predictions-

'Failed to route payment, recipient may not be reachable. Try sending a smaller amount or increasing the max fee reserve. Send NZ$3.38 ⚡️3,000 to bitcoin-prediction-market Max routing fee ⚡️1500'

Not sure what could be the problem, our node is online and we have channels with inbound liquidity. Let me look into this deeper.

Thanks- I have contacted coinos.io support too to ask if they can help. Have not heard back yet. BTW I just made a small test payment to another unrelated LN address from my coinos.io wallet - there was no problem at all.

Just tryed Bitcoinpredict payment again, still failure to process payment....new massage from wallet on failure- ERR Error running script (call to f_71cdd48ae74afa853d7e5040b5981ea5b94014de): @user_script:12: user_script:12: bad argument #1 to 'decode' (string expected, got boolean)

And trying again I get- 'Failed to route payment, recipient may not be reachable. Try sending a smaller amount or increasing the max fee reserve.' (for a prediction bet of 2100sats)
